As I walked through a Brooklyn housing project, there was no litter, no graffiti to be found, but there was a group of French tourists and there were cabs, and there were million-dollar homes literally right across the street.
Million Dollar Homes is also another category Brooklyn does not win vs San Francisco, despite being 3 times larger.
Housing Units Valued at $1 Million+
San Francisco, CA 33,338
Brooklyn, NY 26,218
Actually, Brooklyn has less million dollar homes than the Bay Area's 5 largest counties despite being far larger in population than all of them.
Anyway,

Looks like a typical frou frou Young Black Hipster/Artist/Yuppi/Intellectual/Whatever hangout to me. Could find this pretty much anywhere with a decent black populous. But if that's your thing, than......
Yeah, Bajan needs to heed his own advice and get out and travel some.
Umm, yeah except at the hangouts you're thinking of, the rappers you are chillin' with are not world-famous. As is other cities can lay a claim on hip-hop the way Brooklyn can. That's a joke.

San Francisco has virtually no black people. So you're not gonna find this over there. Less affluent blacks are leaving the city and more affluent blacks (particularly younger blacks) aren't moving there. New York, DC and Atlanta are by far the clear winners in that department. San Francisco is a great place to live if you meet one or more of the following criteria:

So San Francisco is a better place to be than Brooklyn if you're an affluent Asian person. I can also gather you've never been to Broadway in Oakland on any night of the week, especially not Friday or Saturday. Bring a camera
IDK about you but I can imagine the mujeres moving to that with a rotating cast of some of our posters MC'ing.
